'Peer to Peer' (P2P) applications allow users to share and download music files, video files, and other digital content through the Internet. P2P applications have become very popular with domestic users as it allows seamless integration of applications with computers of different configurations without the need for special server devices.
P2P applications available on the Internet offer a large user base, thousands of downloadable files, and effective utilization of network resources. P2P applications in recent years have become a base for developing new business ideas that allow users to meet each other on the Internet and share common interests.
Some of the most popular P2P applications include eMule that was originally started with the objective of building an improved free eDonkey (P2P) client. It has achieved in garnering a large user base and connects to eDonkey P2P file sharing network and a few other P2P networks. The application does not contain advertising and software base is maintained by an open source development team. 'BitTorrent' is another P2P application that has attracted a large following of individuals interested in sharing movies and television programs. The official version of this P2P tends to monopolize a network connection and not allow Internet surfing or otherwise utilizing the network while files are being downloaded or uploaded. User's can overcome this limitation by using the free version of this P2P application.
'Limewire' P2P application is recognized for its clean user interface that does not contain advertisements and 'spyware' and is sometimes billed as the fastest file sharing application. 'Kazaa' P2P application is fast and easy to use but its user base has declined in recent years due to the unavailability of popular audio/video files.
Rampant use of P2P applications has lead to many cases of copyright infringements, which needs to be controlled for ensuring the future growth of P2P networks and applications.
